"The movie from about 2007, 'Idiotocracy', does come to mind as a rebuttal to 'Dump & Dumber'. The movie seems to make a case for intellectual decay, and the need to prevent it. Sadly, it is unclear if the audience gets the…"

Gregg R Thomas replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"By doG I think you hit the nail on the spiritual head. :D

Matt Giwer replied to Unseen's discussion 'The Racists Really Won't Like This!'"These genetic claims have to be read carefully and at times ignored completely as they are political. The Sephardic Jews, aka asian Jews although it included north Africa and the Palestinians and Arabs are the same.
The Ashkenazi Jews from eastern…"
Matt Giwer replied to Unseen's discussion 'The Racists Really Won't Like This!'"Actually there was never a religious conflict. There were jewish generals leading jewish armies fighting FOR, as in alongside of, Mohamed. It is a protected religion in Islam as it is in Christianity. Islam has never singled out Jews for…"
archaeopteryx replied to Belle Rose's discussion 'I have a question...'"Yeah, I think it has, as I recall, Unseen began something similar some time ago, but you know how he's always trying to start trouble. It might have been during one of your name changes, you might have missed it.

Welcome to TA
Our Radio Show
 This week on the Think Atheist Radio Show we have our interview with Dr. Sebastian Seung! Dr. Seung is a professor of computational neuroscience at MIT. A leading researcher in the emerging field of connectomics– the field of study that is attempting to map the connections in our brains– he has made important advances in artificial intelligence, neuroscience, neuroeconomics, and statistical physics. His recently published book, Connectome, does just what the subtitle says, explains how the brain's wiring makes us who we are. With implications for personality, identity, intelligence, memory, and even disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, this is a wide-ranging and fascinating book on a subject that would be right at home in a sci-fi movie but is in fact real! Don't miss this discussion!
And don't miss our recent interview with Dr. Jessica Pierce! Working in bioethics, Dr. Pierce is the co-author of Wild Justice: The Moral Lives of Animals. What does it say about human morality and what does it mean for the study of morality that many animals demonstrate behaviors that can only be described with words like "justice", "fairness", and "altruism"? Make sure to check out all of our past shows and see who's coming up in the next few weeks! You can also grab the shows from our iTunes page. |
